How Mules Saved an Army. :

Prior to the battle Of Nashville Mai.
Gen. James u. Donaldson (who won
honors in the Mexican war, and who
died in the spring of 1866 was Quar-
termaster under Gen. Thomas, Having
occasion to purchase mules for the
army, he ordered a person in whom he
had confidence to visit the contiguous
Northern States, advertently saying to.
him, buy as many as you can mot.
.supposing he would be able to secure
more than a few thousand at the most.
Some weeks afterward, just before the.
attack upon Hood S army Gen. Donald
son, on meeting his agent, inquired how
many he had been able to secure. To
the amazement Of the General he was
informed that %, 900 or more had been
obtained. Upon which the astonished
General exclaimed: am a ruined mani.
{ shall be court nlartialed and be driven
from the army for not limiting you in
the purchase. You have procured many

handing General. He had scarcely
reached his house before a messenger
came from Gen. I homas with an order
for Gen. Donaldson to come immedi-
ately to headquarters. This seemed to.
be the sealing of his fate, and in state.
of trepidation bordering on frenzy he
appeared before Gen. Thomas, whom
he found in a mood apparently Of great
depression. Soon after Donaldson had
entered his presence Gen. Thomas said:
s.Donaldson, how many mules havey ou?n
With some perturbation he replied:
.1Upward of 25,OOO.' s.Twenty-five
Thousand did you say?' repeated the
General: ..is it possible that you have.

MIDSUMMER GOLDEN ROD,
Bids's thou the summer hasten,
The fields and hillsides glisten
With early snowfakes fallen,
Midsummer golden rod.
Would'st Danish crimson clover,
The blackbird and the plover,
Whist thou broad fields reign over
With golden rod.
Like sunshine is thy face;
Modest and sweet thy grace.
Yet thou and all thy race
Weird ribalds are.
Thou tell'st Of wind and cloud,
Tempest and thunder loud,
Dark forms of demons proud,
Dread winters sway.
Delay still yet while;
Force not on US thy smile.
SO sweet, 30 full of guile!
Thou golden rod.
Late we'll welcome thee,
When from each shrub and tree,
No more comes forth the glee
OF festive song
When summer skies grow pale,
When autumn breezes wall,
Then gladly these We'll hail,
Bright golden rod.

Professor Cook being asked why he
did not recommend white arsenic as an
insecticide instead of Paris green and
London purple, replied that the arsenic
was equally fatal and cheaper, but was
more dangerous to human life. Men
and women did not get poisoning from
the material sprayed on fruit or,
sprinkled on potato vines. They did
get poisoned sometimes in the house by
installing arsenic for something else.
The color of Paris green and London
purple carried their own warning. No
